An ABC News Australian affiliate is reporting that a fan at a Guns N' Roses concert was struck in the face after Axl Rose—as he is wont to do—tossed his microphone into the crowd. The purported incident is said to have cause two black eyes.
Video of the incident has surfaced of the gig in question, which took place in Adelaide, Australia last week on Nov. 29, though the mic landing cannot be seen. Rose can, however, be seen clearly tossing his mic upward and into the crowd as the band finaled with "Paradise City." The mic apparently struck the fan in the bridge of the nose, blackening the eyes.
ABC is reporting they reached out to Guns N' Roses for a comment but did not receive a response.
Guns N' Roses reissued a deluxe box set of their 1991 Use Your Illusion albums last month, featuring a newly-recorded symphony track for "November Rain" that was remixed by Porcupine Tree's Steven Wilson.
